Speedy deletion nomination of File:Gaboltribe.JPG
A tag has been placed on File:Gaboltribe.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. --Rrburke(talk) 02:59, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Nabil Gabol. Saqib (talk) 09:36, 22 August 2018 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Balochworld. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Nabil Gabol, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template);
 * disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. byteflush Talk 04:01, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Please disclose what is your connection to the subject or the Gabol family. Thank you. byteflush Talk 04:02, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi. I am in no way connected to the Gabol family. I have though, read and researched about the individual and topic discussed in detail and whatever I am doing is out of voluntary free and and I am in no way receiving any compensation. Please visit the talk page of "Nabil Gabol" and see how I am being prevented from contributing. Balochworld (talk) 07:35, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
 * You joined Wikipedia a decade ago but never contributed outside the topic. May I ask why? --Saqib ([[User talk:Saqib|

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for edit warring, as you did at Nabil Gabol. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 17:54, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Nabil Gabol 2. Regarding this block. If you have anything to add while blocked please add it here and I'll be happy to copy it over. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:03, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

I have read the discussion so far and completely agree with Observance22 Cullen328 and Ravensfire. Saqib is clearly making the article about the BLP a hit piece by including accusations that are over 5 years old. In Pakistani politics accusations come on a daily basis and are purely politically motivated. I clearly requested on several occasions that it should be removed because these accusations did not result in an investigation let alone any conviction. I thank SheriffsinTown for his effort but he will agree that the only thing all three of us reached consensus on was removal of 1990 and 1997 election results because clearly it was a common case of a candidate simply submitting nomination papers as his party's covering candidate (someone who has gotten several thousands votes in the same election cannot possibly get 24 votes at the same time). Hence after consensus a protected edit request was made successfully. Once the protection on the page expired Saqib went ahead with his own agenda and added information that was never even discussed let alone agreed upon. I did not expect this from an experienced editor like Saqib. I initiated a discussion on the article's talk page but Saqib seemed bent upon sticking to his version and that is when I warned him on his talk page and involved other editors. Balochworld (talk) 05:58, 15 September 2018 (UTC)

Saqib is proposing that I be topic banned because I have conflict of interest. I strictly deny this accusation. I never claimed ownership of the article either. I am however well read on the subject and have been contributing to the article for over 10 years. If anyone should be banned from the topic it should be saqib as he made a decade old article unstable and controversial. Further, one of the comments above by "Faithfullguy" appears to be sock-puppetry by Saqib. I request that SPA investigation be initiated against Saqib as Faithfullguy has been blocked already and was used while Saqibs account was blocked. Thank you Balochworld (talk) 18:27, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

@ivanvector Balochworld (talk) 20:28, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
 * If you don't have a conflict of interest, please explain how you own the copyright to this image. Huon (talk) 09:12, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * And while you're at it, this image, too, please. Huon (talk) 09:14, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi Huon. Both these pictures were taken by me. Thanks Balochworld (talk) 10:17, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * The second image is a still from a video (which is why it's of such poor quality). Did you take the video as well? Black Kite (talk) 13:30, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * So you, personally, were present in the Prime Minister House in 2004 to take a close-up photo of the Prime Minister talking with Mr Gabol (admins may want to check the clearly-not-own-work version of the first file that I deleted). You also, personally, took a photo of Mr Gabol with Fatima Jinnah, who died more than 50 years ago. And yet you are in no way associated with Mr Gabol. Sorry, I don't believe that. Huon (talk) 13:34, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I note a previous version that you uploaded said "Picture provided courtesy of Mir Nadir Khan Gabol". It was deleted as there was no proof of this. So which is true? Black Kite (talk) 18:12, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

While I'm not being allowed to contribute Saqib continues to hurl false allegations now against me. He is now claiming that I am Nadir Gabol son of Nabil Gabol. This is insane. First of all I am not going to disclose my real name as that is a privacy issue but even if my name was Nadir Gabol do you all seriously think there is only one person with that name in the whole world? Balochworld (talk) 10:41, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

please copy my above comment to the ANI page as I have every right to defend myself against Saqibs false accusations. Balochworld (talk) 10:48, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

my account is Balochworld not BalochworldS. I am sorry but it's quite unfair that you struck off your vote. Hope you will reconsider. Thanks Balochworld (talk) 10:58, 17 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Balochworld, this is your second block for edit warring on this article in a short span, and your responses here so far have not given me confidence that you understand that blocking you has nothing to do with what other editors do. Please have a look at Edit warring, and please pay special attention to the section titled How experienced editors avoid becoming involved in edit wars. Then, please briefly explain here what you should do when another editor reverts your edit, and I'd especially like to know what you can do next time someone reverts your edit and won't discuss the matter with you but just keeps reverting. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:07, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Ivanvector: next time I will not get involved in an edit war. I will encourage discussion on the talk page seeking a neutral opinion. AND I will actively seek guidance from other editors/admins. Thank you. Balochworld (talk) 14:42, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm reasonably satisfied with respect to edit warring, but you seem to have uncovered some more issues. How would you like to proceed? Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 14:50, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * A topic ban on all Gabol-related articles would appear to be the least we can do here. Not only is there disruption, but the editor is lying to us as well. Black Kite (talk) 18:08, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * There is a discussion to that effect at ANI right now. If there's a question of the copyright status of the images, then perhaps we should be talking about an indefinite block instead. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 18:28, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Black Kite I am extremely disappointed by you. You are accusing me of lying? Do you have any evidence? Are you God? Picture this: I was a teenager in 1966, does that make me 200 years old today? Please be careful next time you accuse me of anything without any evidence. Balochworld (talk) 18:39, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * If that is the case, when you uploaded the image previously, why did you sign it "Picture provided courtesy of Mir Nadir Khan Gabol". Either you took it (as you claim), or the image was provided by a family member (as the previous image claimed).  Which is it?  With differing stories, you can hardly be upset that people are doubting you.  And you still haven't explained how you came to take the video in the Prime Minister's house.... Black Kite (talk) 18:46, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Mir Nadir Khan Gabol is a family member? So everyone with the last name Smith are family members? Also I am at no liberty to tell you how I had access to the PM house. I could be a journalist, a bureaucrat, a security official. AM I related to Allah Bux Gabol? NO! Am I related to Nabil Gabol? NO! AM I getting paid for this? NO! Upset? Yes, since you are accusing me of lying without any conclusive evidence. Almost sounds like you have taken everything a little to personal. Balochworld (talk) 18:54, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * You still haven't explained the provenance of these images. As for lying, one of your claims about the first image is a lie, because you've given two different stories about it.  That's the problem, unfortunately - we always give people the benefit of the doubt but when they're giving us conflicting stories we have to doubt them. Black Kite (talk) 19:06, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello? Which "earlier" image are you talking about? was it uploaded by me or the other balochworldS (notice the s?) that you are assuming to be me? can you send me a link to the deleted file I need to see if it was exactly the same photo that I have uploaded as "ABGABOLJINNAH.jpg." Oh and by the way...you are giving me no benefit doubt. If it was up to you you would probably report me to FBI for upsetting you. Balochworld (talk) 19:12, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * FYI - the previous image was File:KBABGABOLJINNAH.jpg, uploaded by you (not Balochworlds) in 2008 in 2009. Exactly the same image that was added previously in 2008 by Balochworlds, with the comment "Picture provided courtesy of Mir Nadir Khan Gabol". Black Kite (talk) 22:12, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * For what it's worth, the 2008 version of File:KBABGABOLJINNAH.jpg was uploaded by Balochworlds who added that comment; see Special:Undelete/File:KBABGABOLJINNAH.jpg. Balochworld (without the s) uploaded an identical image under the same name in November 2009 that has also gotten deleted; they re-uploaded the same image again as File:ABGABOLJINNAH.jpg about two weeks later. Huon (talk) 06:40, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry, yes, I've edited my statement as it was unclear. Black Kite (talk) 09:57, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Balochworlds uploaded File:Withbenazir2.jpg in 2008. A year later File:ABGABOLJINNAH.jpg was uploaded from this account (Balochworld). See the metadata of both images. Exactly the same software and version was used. Further connect the dots. --Saqib (talk) 16:14, 18 September 2018 (UTC)


 * It's patently obvious that Balochworld has uploaded images that were not their own work and claimed "own work" for those (for example File:Baran.jpg). That makes it impossible for me to just accept their word when they make implausible claims about copyright, such as having taken photos in the 1960s and in the Prime Minister's residence. It's also patently obvious (despite claims to the contrary) that this account either is User:Balochworlds or is associated with that account (that's a distinction that doesn't make much of a difference); compare for example File:Baran.JPG and File:Gaboltribe.JPG. Given the file descriptions and the nature of some of those files, I find it extremely difficult to believe that they are not associated with the Gabol family in some way. User:Balochworlds definitely is associated. So we're pretty obviously being lied to. Having a conflict of interest is one thing. Falsely claiming not to have one is another; it's deceptive and indicates more severe problems. Lying about copyright is yet another can of worms. For these issues I'll block the account indefinitely. Huon (talk) 20:09, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Huon Stop playing Prosecutor, Judge, Jury and executioner. Find someone who claims I stole their work/image and falsely claimed as my own. Stop assuming things and jumping to (convenient) conclusions. Balochworld (talk) 20:20, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Easy: The (deleted) example image I linked to above was claimed by you as "own work" but bears a Google copyright tag. As I said above, that makes it impossible for me to take any further implausible claims of yours at face value when you fail to provide explanations upon request. Also, if you were a teenager in 1966, you were younger than 10 in 1956, when the image of Fatima Jinnah apparently was taken. I find it highly implausible that the cameraman (or -woman) at such a high-profile event would be a child. Huon (talk) 20:39, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * There are several problems with your statement above. You are incorrectly assuming that I and the other account are the same person. 2: my uploaded image and the other image were exactly the same. 3: my image was not circulated on Google publicly. 4: that the picture is from 1956 and not 1966. 5: my age.

surely you will not allow this injustice.
 * If you are not the same person as the one who operated the Balochworlds account, you'll have to explain why we should believe your copyright claims and not that other person's although that other person had uploaded the same images earlier than you (more than one image, including at least one they claimed as "own work"). "Trust me" is not going to cut it, particularly since you have made patently and obviously false statements about "own work".
 * Your uploaded image and the other image were exactly the same. That's not an assumption; I can see the deleted images.
 * If your image was publicly circulated on Google before you uploaded it here, we'll need confirmation via WP:OTRS that proves you are indeed the copyright holder and not just someone else who took it from Google. I did Google Image searches for the images, though, and couldn't find old non-Wikipedia-related copies. If the image was previously published elsewhere, please provide a link.
 * The original uploader wrote that the image was from 1956 and not 1966. Why should we disbelieve that original uploader's statement? Are you calling him a liar?
 * You said: "I was a teenager in 1966". Were you misrepresenting your own age? Huon (talk) 06:40, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

I don't know who the other uploader is and I will not call that other person a liar. The picture is my own work and I have copyright. Did anyone else claim that I stole their work? You blocked my account based on assumptions. Balochworld (talk) 08:01, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
 * That other uploader, who uploaded the images first, also tagged some of them as "own work" - yes, the same ones you later uploaded. So there are competing claims of copyright for those images. And of course there are the images you uploaded as "own work" which bear a Google copyright tag, and the one that was credited to APP. It doesn't matter whether others are aware that you violate their copyright and explicitly complain. You'll have to do better than "I don't know who that person is whose username is almost identical to mine and who claimed copyright to the photos I claim as my own work before I did so". Why should we believe your claim and not the earlier uploader's? Are you claiming that they stole your work? How? I'll note that you did not answer any of my other questions and didn't provide any new information which would help get this situation sorted out. Huon (talk) 08:25, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Why would I bring the other person into the conversation? I will talk about myself. THIS IS MY WORK. I have used it on flickr, ORKUT, blogs. I don't know why the other account stole it. I don't know why that other account first had a different username and then CHANGED it to look like mine. It's quite obvious the other account tried to impersonate me. These are questions that you should be directing at them. There have been a lot of accusations hurled at me and I've been cleared on all of them. But I guess this will never end. RIP benefit of doubt. Balochworld (talk) 08:55, 18 September 2018 (UTC)


 * @Balochworld: please see Huon's point #3 above. If you have proof of copyright but do not want to discuss here, please contact WP:OTRS to verify the matter privately. We can't do anything for you otherwise. We have to go by what we can see, and that is that your "own work" image uploads appear to be derivatives of images with a separate watermarked assertion of ownership, and thus your uploads are copyright violations. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:24, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

@Ivanvector: I have the original hard copy with me. Does the other account with "s" claim that they took the picture? I am the only person claiming ownership. The picture is over 50 years old and I have shared it with several individuals via emails, copies etc. There is no conclusive evidence to justify blocking me indefinitely. Please reconsider. Thanks. Balochworld (talk) 14:38, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Like Huon and I said, the only way to verify is by going through OTRS. I'm not an OTRS volunteer, I can't help you any more with this. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 16:18, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

I tried use the OTRS. Apparently I don't know how to use it. Help?Balochworld (talk) 18:02, 18 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Hm, yes, it's a lot of info. I suggest sending an email to, someone should be able to help you from there. Thanks for taking the time. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 18:07, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with unjust blocking of my account. User:Huon has blocked my account indefinitely accusing me of lying. I uploaded a picture that I exclusively own. Just because another user with a similar name as mine uploaded it as well Huon is assuming that I am the guilty party. The other user has not claimed ownership of the image nor have they challenged me. I don't see how this justifies a draconian act such as blocking me indefinitely. thanks.

 * Do not use the help me template for unblock requests. Follow the instructions above. CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  17:45, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
 * hi. I'm not sure what instructions above are. I don't see anything. Could you please point it out. Thanks. Balochworld (talk) 18:05, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
 * This is detailed at length all over your talk page. To be quite honest, if you can't be bothered to read it, I'm not sure that editing Wikipedia is for you. CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  18:07, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Reboot
replying to your ping above, and doing it down here because discussion is going on in several locations and I'm getting lost.

So issue #1: you fully deserve a 1 week block for "serial edit warring", which appears to me to be obviously accurate, and after multiple warnings. So there's really no way you're going to get unblocked before the 21st, no matter who owns what photo. So there's no rush. So stop posting random stuff all over the page, misusing helpme, etc.

Issue #2: Since there's no rush, take a couple of days off. Then, come back, review the claims of copyright violation and COI, and make a clear, concise unblock request that addresses them. I admit to not understanding all the details of this issue, but I note that (a) Huon, Black Kite, and Ivanvector know what they're doing about 99.5% of the time, and (b) it does not look like anyone is supporting you here, so your claim that this is obvious nonsense and you should be unblocked at once ring hollow. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:20, 18 September 2018 (UTC)


 * For the sake of clarity, here's a list of all of Balochworld's image-related contributions:
 * File:Minister.jpg: Nothing actually uploaded but a link to an image uploaded by User:Balochworlds six minutes after Balochworld's edit.
 * File:Gaboltribe.JPG: Had previously been uploaded by User:Balochworlds as File:Baran.JPG, as File:Gabol Tribe Mens welcoming Sardar Nabil Ahmed Gabol.jpg and as File:Gabol Tribe Mens welcoming Sardar Nabil Ahmad Gabol.jpg ("Ahmad" instead of "Ahmed") with a claim of PD-self, ie they claimed to have been the creator.
 * [[File:Huntingathome.jpg]]
 * File:Baran.jpg and File:Baranzoom.jpg: Two different images taken from Google Maps, with full copyright tags. Both claimed as PD-self. Obvious copyright violations.
 * File:KBABGABOLJINNAH.jpg and File:ABGABOLJINNAH.jpg: Discussed above at length. Previously uploaded under the first name by User:Balochworlds who added both PD-self and, in a separate edit, "Picture provided courtesy of Mir Nadir Khan Gabol". So yes, they claimed to be the creator and/or copyright holder of that image, too. It's here, and while Balochworlds uploaded it to Wikipedia before it was posted on Facebook, Balochworld uploaded it only afterwards.
 * File:SardarNabilGabol.jpg: Two versions of Gabol at a rally. Same image, slightly color-adjusted.
 * File:Gabolandpm.jpg: Two different versions, the first of which had a caption that credited it to APP. The initial upload already was tagged as PD-self. Given the location, the other version is dubious too, and Balochworld has been evasive at best.
 * File:Benazir.JPG: Not identical to any of the various Bhutto images uploaded by User:Balochworlds. It's this image, uploaded on the same day (October 7, 2010).
 * File:SardarNabilGabol1.jpg: Another copy of File:SardarNabilGabol.jpg
 * File:Nabilahmedgabol.jpg: Two versions differing by some photoshopping to remove a background light. The second version is the same as this, and it was uploaded to Wikipedia after April 25, 2011. The first version is a crop of this, uploaded after October 24, 2010. Both versions were claimed to be PD-self.
 * File:Allah Bux Gabol.jpg: This, uploaded after March 8, 2011. License given as.
 * That's a total of eleven different images uploaded (differing by more than a modification of the same underlying photograph). Of those, three are unambiguous copyright violations since they come with image credits to some corporate entity. Two were previously uploaded by Balochworlds with a competing claim of authorship. Four, including one of the previous two, were on family members' Facebook pages before they were uploaded here by Balochworld. For only three of the images could I not find a prior version somewhere else. "Benefit of the doubt" under these circumstances? Sorry, WP:AGF is not a suicide pact.
